THE TEACHERS INSTITUTE

THE TEACHERS INSTITUTE
which has been in session all week was
largely attended and has been both enter
tanning and instructive. The annual ball
of the Ancient Order of Hibernians will
take place in Miners Union Hall Monday
evening. A large attendance and a good
time is anticipated. The cause is a worthy
one as the proceeds are to be devoted to
the care of members who may become sick
or disabled. Those who purchase tickets
may feel assured that they are assisting a

Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings
we are to have MIR. Horace Lewis in Dumas
matchless melodrama 1.-THE Count OF Monte
Cristo."

destrian had to dodge about continually in
order to escape being spatterel. And now

at society, but it is noticed that the
most of them enjoy it all the same.
